Albert's Shipyard is where you'll really start to customize your boat! Think of it as your main hub for making your ship bigger, better, and faster. You'll unlock new shipbuilding options here as you progress, and it's essential for accessing new areas and making your journey smoother.

There are two main things you can do at Albert's Shipyard: build new facilities using blueprints and upgrade your boat's size or add special improvements. Let's break down what's available.
